Lamont Peterson retires

[Fenster]

Solid fighter who i'll remember for being a drugs cheat, getting a robbery over Khan and flattened by Matthysse. Harsh but true.

Didn't think he robbed Khan. I just reckon Khan wasn't skilful enough to adapt.

Khan was certainly more skillfull than Peterson, the ref was a joke, point deductions and constant warnings, then the "hat man" scoring controversy and to top it all off Peterson got done/admitted cheating with testosterone injections.

Ok, but khan is a loser so it was funny. He should fight guys juiced up with crooked refs more often.

Not about to re watch it, but wasn’t it two points the ref took away? I remember thinking it was very close assuming the judges had to count that, which they do. So not really a robbery by definition. Also, a complete technicality and I could be wrong, but Peterson had a pellet put into his armpit rather than injections. Therefore he tested positive for “synthetic” testosterone but not elevated levels, at least I believe . If guys do get injections but are within the “normal” range they won’t test positive from what I know, so Peterson probably wishes he did do that.

Can't remember details just controversy. Peterson getting done for juicing was hilarious after all the scoring and reffing shenanigans and "nice guy" history

It’s not cheating if it’s against Khan ok, and he didn’t test positive or have a ref on his side in any other fights, it’s a non starter. And he is a nice guy!
